Nuggets hold off Grizzlies 108-107 -- The AP reports: Thanks to Nene and Arron Afflalo, George Karl will get to go for the 1,000th win in his NBA career in Charlotte, N.C., just a 2 1/2 -hour drive down Interstate 85 from Chapel Hill, where he embarked on a life of basketball four decades ago. “I would probably like it in Charlotte and get it over with and have some beers and keep our momentum going in a good direction,” Karl said after the Nuggets pulled out a 108-107 victory over the scrappy Memphis Grizzlies on Sunday night... Karl got win No. 999 Sunday when the Nuggets overcame a third-quarter meltdown that included a technical on Carmelo Anthony for arguing a call. Anthony was just 4 of 20 from the floor for 13 points... Rudy Gay led the Grizzlies with 24 points.
